2014 is turning out to be an event filled year for N's entire family. Everyone seem to have something going on.
His parents are building a house starting this spring. It will beautiful and amazing, although they probably won't actually move until 2015.
N's youngest brother and his fiancé (we'll call them NJ) are getting married in August. It should be great fun and I am looking forward to seeing K bust a move on the dance floor.
Two of the biggest events of 2014, though, will be the birth of twins and triplets from the other two brothers and their wives (we'll call them CT1 and CT2). And, yes, you read that correctly. One sister-in-law is currently pregnant with TWINS (29 weeks) and another is currently pregnant with TRIPLETS (21 weeks). Due to the high risk nature of their pregnancies, they will likely be born within a month and a half of each other.
We are so thankful that they are all looking healthy, especially since it wasn't easy for CT1 and CT2 to get to this point.
K is incredibly excited for some new cousins and is always talking about how we are waiting for babies. She says that she will help feed them, change their diapers, cook supper and do laundry. I'm most excited to hear the names that everyone comes up with. It's my favorite part when babies are born (after hearing they are healthy).

Another DIY - but I can't take credit
Last fall, I dragged N and my brother to the movie theater to see The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
After seeing it, I simply needed a copy of Katniss' wool vest that she wears hunting. After a few hours on Pinterest and Google, I found several patterns. Here is the problem....I neither knit nor crochet!
But my mother-in-law does! I asked her if she could try to make one for me and she said sure but not until after Christmas.
She finished it at the end of January
and has since made on for my sister-in-law and plans on making some for my other two sister-in-laws! She did have to modify the pattern quite a bit because the sizing was wonky. I can't seem to find the link at the moment.
So here she is... my Katniss Cowl Vest
